US not labeling GMO products

The U.S. does not require mandatory labeling of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in food products, primarily due to the belief that GMOs are safe and nutritionally equivalent to non-GMO foods. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) maintains that labeling could imply a safety concern that isn't supported by scientific evidence. However, consumer advocacy groups argue that transparency is essential for informed choices, leading to ongoing debates about the need for clearer labeling regulations. Some states have attempted to implement their own labeling laws, further complicating the issue.
